Her to her 24 year old activist granddaughter: “You kids need to just shut up. You have no idea how the world works.”
She understands there is a problem, just doesn’t understand the solution. Good on her for having privacy concerns and paying attention.
She is painting a target on her back with the saying “scammers, I’m gullible and ignorant”.
I remember when Facebook was solely for college students. Now it seems to have a three denture minimum.
Spoiler alert, Facebook turned 20 this year 💀
My mom posted something similar to this, about not giving consent to Facebook to sell her data while using Facebook for free. Seems like her friends did this and recommended it to her as well.
Oh the irony.
I’ve gotten in several arguments with morons over those posts, there does seem to be some section of the population that just can’t comprehend that the 20 page document that you agreed to when you made the account is legally binding.
That might be because they actually aren’t binding in many cases. Courts have held that if the contract can’t be reasonably expected to be read or understood by the people it “binds,” it’s not really enforceable, and 99% of EULAs are ridiculously long and legalese-heavy. But that doesn’t change the fact companies can and will treat them as such until challenged in court, and they’ll almost always be allowed to refuse service to pretty much whoever they want.
So you’d be right here; grandma’s post about not giving Facebook the right to her data is meaningless. Don’t want Facebook to have your data? Don’t use Facebook!
These are also people who claim the constitution was violated when they got a temp ban for threatening to assassinate politicians so we aren’t exactly talking about legal experts here.
my grandpa got temp banned off of Facebook for something and we all just agreed to not ask why
I remember everyone posting that when Facebook went public not realizing it was about being listed on the stock market

Amen, sister.
I bet it was from a chain mail back in the day, that if you put that in your profile then your safe, too bad it’s not true.
I too have this in my safe.
Oh, another one of those “if you type this thing into Facebook somehow it will cause “x” to happen.” things.
Usually something to do with privacy.
She looks smug as shit too
That’s rude, how is Facebook supposed to still be a book if you don’t allow them to print?
Legally there’s nothing they can do
Order print
Facebook be like: “don’t worry! I will not print off your COMPUTER! it will be the printer muhahahahaa”
And I don’t either!
